Panasonic Launches 3D VIERA, World First Full HD 3D TV In April 2010

MasPoster — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 07:09:03 +0000

Panasonic’s world first Full HD (High Definition) 3D TV in 54-inch and 50-inch plasma display will be launching in Japan on 23 April 2010.

The new technology being used on this new HD 3D TV is called “Frame Sequential” which produces pictures for left eye then right eye alternatively. A special “Active Shutter 3D Glasses” will allow individual left and right pictures to be shown to the viewer in synchronization to produce the 3D effects.

The TV displays only left or right eye image one at a time, a “High Speed Response” system switches left and right images alternatively every 1/120 second, that is twice the speed of a 2D display.

Because plasma display uses the “Impulse Luminescence System”, this special characteristic is suitable to produce the “High Speed Response” required for 3D display.

In the past, after light is produced on the display there is an afterglow remains, this afterglow makes pictures appear blur and makes viewing tiring for viewers.

The VIERA HD 3D TV display tackles afterglow problems on two fronts. It reduces the general afterglow by over 60%, making pictures appear sharper and more detailed for both 2D and 3D programmings.

Past display technology produces light from "Dim to Bright" in terms of brightness, the afterglow therefore overlaps the next image frame making long time viewing tiring for the viewers. The new display reduces the "Afterglow Luminescence" by producing light from "Bright to Dim". Less afterglow remains to overlap the next image frame.

New display panel technology also enables the TV to produce "Full Black Panel" property. Black color is deeper, therefore making other colors brighter and more defined.

Each Panasonic 3D VIERA comes with one pair of 3D glasses. The glasses weights 63 grams and comes with two nose pads designed to ergonomically fit all users including adults and children.

The VT2 also uses less energy, compared to Panasonic V1 50-inch, the VT2 50-inch uses 13% less energy.

There are other neat functions on the 3D TV such as, TV programming guide, voice reading out of TV guide, simultaneous 2 channels viewings with different size modes, listen to TV with speakers and headphone simultaneously therefore enabling to adjust volume according to the needs of individual viewers, SD card slot and USD slot to display photos.

There is no announcement of recommended retail price of the 3D VIERA or the price of extra 3D glasses yet.
